RP 156/7 (20 ov)
IU won by 7 wickets
INNINGS OVER — RP 156/7
156/7. A total that asks questions but does not answer them — IU will fancy this chase, but cricket has a way of humbling confidence. Ghulam's 50 off 39 (SR 128) was the innings that held everything together, with Forrester (38 off 18) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Ashraf (2/22 in 4 ov), Gleeson (2/27 in 4.1 ov), Irshad (2/46 in 4 ov) all contributed. The middle-overs squeeze did the damage — 3 wickets between overs 7 and 15 sucked the momentum out of the innings. IU need 157 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
